In this multisensory work, choreographer Pavel Zustiak and his Palissimo Company ask, Where do we find beauty today, and does it need our defense? Zustiak creates an immersive visual experience for Custodians of Beauty, combining movement with imagery, light, and sound in response to a 2009 speech by Pope Benedict XVI, reminding artists of their responsibilities as custodians of beauty in the world. Through formal abstraction and restrained, minimalist gesture, Zustiak explores the human body as sculpture, emotional trigger, and political symbol.
